Plage de Rocroy, Black sand beach in Vieux-Habitants, Guadeloupe
Located between Baillif and Vieux-Habitants, Plage de Rocroy stretches for 100 meters along the coast with dark volcanic sand and pebbles.
The beach marks the location where the Rocroy stream meets the Caribbean Sea, forming a natural boundary between two distinct Guadeloupean communes.
Local residents gather at the Rocroy Zouk'afe restaurant near the beach to enjoy traditional Guadeloupean dishes and fresh beverages throughout the day.
Four wooden shelters equipped with tables provide designated picnic areas, while outdoor showers allow visitors to rinse off after swimming.
The dark volcanic sand composition of the beach causes surface temperatures to reach extreme levels during peak sunlight hours.
